Purple Jam Present – HarePod Pro. The next in AirPod arcade gaming. Mr Hare’s a total g. Just look at him – he’s probably strapped and holding mad cash. What’s more important is that he’s just robbed the Intergalactic Chemquat HQ, and totally took all their stuff. The most expensive thing he nicked? A big bag of sparkle. Now, he can fly stuff. It’s probably worth trilla and is most likely well good for nicking other things. Help him escape. For the freedom of Astro-Bandit Hares everywhere. HarePod Pro uses Head Tracking technology to implement a unique control scheme to this classic 2D, casual game. Use your AirPod Pro’s or Airpod Max’s to move Mr Hare up and down, forward and backward. The aim is to get as far as possible. The best high score will not get a prize. The prize is the game. Obviously. You’ll need iOS 12 to play this gem so get upgrading.

Blinky Run is an endless runner you can play without touching the screen. Race across the rooftops of a neon synthwave city and jump with a blink, by opening your mouth… or with a simple tap. THREE WAYS TO PLAY • Fingers: tap anywhere to jump. Works on every device, no camera needed. • Eyes: blink on purpose, a little longer than usual, to jump. • Mouth: open your mouth to jump. • The same course rules in every mode: an easy start, then a real crescendo. PLAY HANDS-FREE • Hands-free mode: pick a mode and start a run with your eyes or mouth, without touching the screen. • 5-second practice calibration: blink (or open your mouth) 3 times to make Blinky jump, and the detection adapts to you. Redo it anytime in Settings. YOUR CAMERA STAYS PRIVATE Face detection runs entirely on your device. Camera images never leave it: they are analyzed in real time, never saved and never sent.

Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Hare Pro at none against Blinky Run's shown. Hare Pro also leads on monetization model (free vs ad-supported) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 17.0). Blinky Run's advantage is ratings volume (26 vs 1). On price, rating, review sentiment and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
